T: daddy’s tomboy princess who says she will be a song writer/artist/doctor when she grows up. M:, our a co-dependent Pomeranian who lies about going potty, chases the vacuum and turns into a pumpkin if she doesn't get her daily treat. I love old, B&W movies, thunderstorms, salsa and decorating. Creating Things. Photography and Collecting Props for said Hobby. I could disappear in a book. I love organizing. I am a compulsive baker. Teacher by day and designer into the wee hours of the night. xo, Annaka
